Andrew Luck threw between 20-25 passes (several to Reggie Wayne), as deep as 20 yards. He did the same drills as the other three quarterbacks. Nothing out of the ordinary. It is the first time we’ve seen him throw since October 12 and exactly what Colts fans want to see before minicamp breaks.

The difference between an NFL and a high school football is negligible. The weight (14-15 ounces) and inflation (12.5-13.5 pounds per square inch) are the same. The high school ball can be shorter or longer (10 7/8 to 11 7/16 inches) than an NFL ball (11 inches).

'I'm thrilled with how this offseason's gone for me.' Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck is upbeat after throwing footballs on June 12, 2018.

The high school ball can be slightly smaller, with its minimum circumferences a quarter inch less lengthwise (27 3/4 inches) and three-quarters of an inch less around (20 1/4). Its maximum circumferences, however, are the same (28 1/2 and 21 1/4).

First-year coach Frank Reich on May 23 said he expected Luck to begin, then ramp up, his throwing routine once minicamp ends. It would appear that timetable was moved up and will give him seven weeks to prepare his surgically repaired right arm for the beginning of training camp.
